All Hell Breaks Loose
Chapter 63: Red Right Hand
"Bill what the hell are you doing?" Sookie asked as she tried to jerk away from him. She stared at the syringe in his hand. "Where the hell did you get that?" She tried looking in his eyes but they were blank. "Let me go."
Bill said nothing as he dropped the syringe and picked her up.
"What the hell are you doing?" She tried to blast him but her arms were numb and she had lost feelings in her legs. "What did you do to me? Help!"
Bill said nothing as he ran out of the house, carrying Sookie with him.
Sookie tried to cry out for help, but they were moving too fast. She thought of Eric. She wished she could send him a message mentally and hoped he could sense what happened. Her thoughts were growing more and more fuzzy by the second.
Eric didn't mind waiting outside for Sookie to return. He watched as the group of witches rearranged the shape of the stones and sticks into the rough shape of the Astoria area according to the map. Hailey held up the book so they could read it.
"Help!" The voice sounded like Sookie.
"What the?" Someone asked.
"Sookie?" Jason asked.
Eric bolted to the closest bathroom and figured it was where she was but when he reached it she was not there. He searched all the bathrooms and found nothing save for a syringe. It smelled like Sookie and it smelled like Bill.
"What is going on?" Valentino asked as he snatched the syringe from Eric. "Procaine."
"Bill," Eric growled as he ran out of the house. He focused on where Sookie was and took off after her.
It did not take Eric long to catch up to Bill although he was certain they were no longer in Louisiana. It was also pretty easy since Bill was just standing there and not moving. He wasn't sure if they were in Arkansas or Oklahoma. He could smell Sookie and see her legs draping over and her blond hair and an arm.
"Bill Compton," Eric shouted as he tackled Bill. He took care to pull Sookie out of the arms of the other vampire before they hit the ground.
Bill snarled and struck Eric in the face with his fist while he tried to grab Sookie away from Eric.
"You can't have her," Eric said. He set her down and threw himself down on Compton. "Where are you taking her."
Bill did not say a single word as he tried to struggle away from Eric's grasp. The younger vampire had his fangs out and was trying his hardest to wriggle away.
"What has gotten into you?"
"This," a voice snarled behind him and a large and warm body tackled him.
Eric brought up his fist against the man who tackled him he grabbed him by the face and forced him down. He felt another pair of hands grab at his legs and he felt the searing pain from silver chains binding his legs. Now he knew why Bill had stopped. Compton had run to where the enemy was waiting for him.
"Should we drain him now?" One of the werewolves asked.
"Get them all in the truck," another voice said. "Our king wants them all."
"Are you certain these are the ones?"
"I'm positive," the second werewolf said. "Silver these two vamps. This girl seems out of it and we are going to take them."
"Not going to make it back before dawn."
"Doesn't the boss want em dead?" A different voice asked.
"He wants to kill them himself. Says it's personal."
"That is why we are taking them to Utah. I got a place there. We can keep them chained up."
"Sookie," Eric said softly. "I'm sorry." He knew he could call Pam, but that would put her at risk. He could give her a soft call, letting her know where he was. She would feel it and know what to do.
"Where is he?" Pam demanded as she searched through the house.
"He took off," Valentino said and held up a syringe. "He was holding this, but it doesn't just have his scent. Bill's scent is on it."
"Let me see," Pam said as she grabbed the syringe and sniffed it. Her head swam from the scent of the drugs that were used. She could smell Eric on it and Bill and another scent on the needle. It smelled like Sookie. "You are right. Bill used this. He injected Sookie with it."
"Why would he do that?"
Pam shrugged. "He's probably jealous and doesn't have balls to admit defeat. Where did he go?"
"He took off," Valentino said. "I believe he is chasing after Bill Compton who had taken Sookie for some reason."
"Pam, Valentino?" Cassidy approached them. "Do you know where Sookie is?"
"We believe that Bill had injected Sookie with an anesthesia and kidnapped her," Valentino explained. "Eric ran off searching for her."
"Seriously?" Cassidy asked. "You have to be shitting me."
"Trust me," Pam said. "I do not shit people." She wondered what was going through Eric's mind and why would he do a foolish thing like this.
"We have to tell the others," Cassidy said as she pointed outside. "Come on." She ran off towards the back yard.
Pam had to admit that the human was right and followed after her with Valentino in tow. Everyone was talking. All of the witches were surrounding the new area that they drew up and Tara and Jason were staring at their direction.
"Where is Sookie?" Jason asked.
"And Eric?" Ismene asked.
"Have you found Bill?" Jessica asked in a hopeful tone. She was the one who was going to take this the hardest.
"Bill has betrayed us," Valentino said in a solemn tone. "He injected Sookie with Procaine and kidnapped her. Eric ran off to rescue her."
Not even a second went by before everyone started talking at once. There were several gasps, several people saying no. There were several others who asked which one was Sookie and which one was Eric.
"I knew I couldn't trust him," Tara said and shook her head.
"I'm gonna fucking kill him," Jason said as he clenched his hands into fists. "I am going to kill that shithead."
"Why would Bill kidnap Sookie?" Steve asked. "That doesn't make any sense."
"Bill wouldn't do that," Jessica said.
"The evidence says different," Pam told her. "Your Maker has betrayed us."
"Bill would never betray us," Jessica said.
"You don't have to defend him because he is your Maker," Jason told her. "You have to look at the facts. His prints are all over the—hey where are his prints?"
"His scent is on the syringe that was used on Sookie," Pam said as she held it under Jessica's nose. She watched as the younger vampire sniffed it before her eyes filled with blood. She closed her eyes and let the bloodied tears fall.
"Jess don't cry," Steve said as tried to comfort her. "Maybe Bill is under a spell."
"Is that possible?" Jessica asked.
"Is it?" Cassidy repeated to some of the witches.
"If he was under a spell then who cast it?" Pam asked.
"Could it be like a silent spell?" Jason asked. "Like they cast it on him while he was their prisoner and then activated now?"
"Like the Manchurian Candidate?" Valentino asked and when Jason and Jessica gave him odd stares he shook his head. "It's a book and a movie."
"This is what he wants," Ismene said. "Don't you see? This is exactly what he wants. He now has all three of them."
"I thought he just wanted some of Sookie's blood," Jessica said. "That's why he just had some of her blood taken."
"What he wanted then is different what he wants now," Ismene said. "We need to tell everyone it is time to take arms. Hailey, you need to contact your mother. Call the werewolves, the faeries the nephilim. It is time to fight."
"We have to find them first," Holly said.
"Can you do that without Sookie?" Jason asked.
"We can," the lead witch said. "Everyone hold hands."
Pam did not pay attention to the witches as they chanted. She noticed that Danny was among them along with his dog, Pavlov. She also noticed that Hailey had a similar map to the image on the ground.
Pam felt a trembled through her body. It was Eric. She knew that feeling. Her Maker was in trouble and calling her, but he wasn't exactly summoning her to him. He was just trying to tell her where he was. She knew the direction and the distance.
"Hailey I need to see this," Pam said. "You can hold that with your finger."
"Why?" Hailey whispered.
"I know where Eric is," Pam answered. "Or it will help me find out where Eric is located." She flipped the pages back to Louisiana and traced her nail near the top left of the state while she calculated the miles and the direction. She turned to Arkansas continued to run her finger and calculate and then to Oklahoma where she stopped.
"Where is he?" Hailey asked.
"Fifteen miles outside of Moore, Oklahoma," Pam answered.
"Is that where you are going?"
"Russell is located in the southwest of Astoria," the lead witch said and collapsed. A few of the other witches came to her aid.
"We know where he is," Ismene said with a grin.
"And we know where Eric is," Hailey said. "And possibly Sookie and Bill."
"Where is your Maker, Pamela?" Ismene asked.
"Near Moore in Oklahoma," Pam answered. "I felt him calling to me."
"Did you feel distress?"
"I did," Pamela answered and nodded. "He was not trying to call me to rush to him. He wanted to tell me where he was."
"There is a good chance he is being moved if he has been captured by the enemy."
"He might need my help now."
"Does he still feel like he is in distress?"
"No," Pam said and shook her head. "He doesn't."
"Keep feeling him," Ismene said. "We need to book flights. We need to alert everyone. Cassidy I need you to set up the webcam. I need to call out to everyone who has agreed to fight on Youtube."
"Hailey, call your mother," Pam ordered. She turned to where Jason, Steve and Jessica stood. "I need you to contact that fairy, and Alcide." She walked over to Tara and Lafayette. "Tell your boss to get in touch with all the shifters. We are moving out."
